Introducing WhilstPosting thoughts or work publicly should feel effortless. Time and attention belong in the content itself, not in the process of getting it online. And yet, putting something on the web often means making a long chain of decisions first — platform, framework, layout, typography, colour. Before a single sentence is published. When creating my own place on the web, I tried a number of platforms. Many of them are excellent. But none were built with a single focus: allowing someone to write and publish with as little friction as possible. I wanted something that felt as simple as a text editor. Open, write, publish. So I built Whilst for myself. Open a page and start writing. What you publish lives on the web with thoughtful typography and a clean layout by default — no configuration required. The goal is to shorten the distance between having something to say and letting it exist online. That’s it. If it's of interest I would love for you to give it a try!
